One of my machine (the dialin machine), an old 386-25 (AMI Bios, Cache something), has had ever since I was running BSD (maybe not on a very early 386bsd-0.0), the nasty habit that it does not come back when I say sync ; reboot. It does the syncing, blanks the screen and comes back with the AMI banner message but then hangs ad infinitum until I personally press the RESET button - this sometimes after driving from home to the campus :-(. I guess it would do a proper warm boot when I press CTRL-ALT-DEL from DOS though I must confess, that I never veryfied it since that machine never saw DOS. It once ran ESIX, then SCO and now FreeBSD-2.0-current. Any insights welcome. --Chris Christoph P. U.
